Blurb:

Addie comes from a long line of readers or "story catchers" as
her family likes to call themselves. Every time Addie tries to catch a story on
her own the wiggly words play tricks on her. She tries different ways to make
those words sit still but it will take a little faith for Addie to become the
next STORY CATCHER.
